Yet another strange Uberzug

Not as cool of an uberzug as Joe's pc, but uncommon none the less. It is a pc of musketieren from 2. Kompanie Landwehr Jnfantrie Reg. 83 der 9 Landwehr Div., cancelled 30 May 1915.
All these chaps have sewn on Regimentals on their uberzugen, all are apparently sewn on by the individual as they are all slightly different. Look at the spacing, especially the fellow who is on the far right. His arabic numerals are spaced some what far apart. Check out the centering too. The most interesting uberzug is worn by the guy that is third from the right.

Here is a closeup. The Landwehr L is to the left of the 83 instead of on top of it.
 
Sweet picture and your analysis seems to be spot on! I have one that has dots after the other digits.

Joe that is exactly where I was going with this, that is so cool, just what you would expect to see on a rifle or sidearm. Very nice, thanks for sharing this one!
